What hidden skill links successful people in all walks of life? What helps them make smart decisions? The answer is surprisingly simple: They know how to ask the right questions at the right time. Questions help us break down barriers, discover secrets, solve puzzles, and imagine new ways of doing things. But few of us knowhowto question in a methodical way. Emmy-award-winning journalist and media expert Frank Sesno aims to change that withAsk More. From questions that cement relationships, to those that help us plan for the future, each chapter inAsk Moreexplores a different type of inquiry. By the end of the book, you’ll know what to ask and when, what you should listen for, and what you can expect as the outcome.
